53 Food Aphrodisiacs

Magnesium, Zinc and Potassium are indispensable elements for proper sexual function, production of semen and most importantly testosterone. Sexual function is also affected negatively by stress. Therefore foods that are rich in Magnesium, Zinc and Potassium and those, which have a calming effect, are great for our libido. For this reason the following 42 foods and 2 herbs are considered aphrodisiacs.

Red Wine, Walnuts, Aniseed, Celery, Cucumber, Ginger, Radish, Raspberries, Sweet Basil, Truffles, Whipped Cream, Pumpkin Seeds, Cherries, Tea, Artichokes, Strawberries, Olive Oil, Arugula, Pine Nuts, Coffee, Chili Peppers, Oysters, Chocolate, Watermelon, Avocado, Figs, Pomegranates, Honey, Vanilla, Salmon, Maca Roots, Cardamom, Hemp, Garlic, Goji Berries, Guava, Banana, Asparagus, Foie Gras, Saffron, Almonds and all Green Leafy Vegetables Plus Ginseng, Gingko Biloba, Beet, Chili, Oysters, Onions, Peaches, Peas, Oranges, Pears and Thyme.

Vitamin D is important for sexual function and proper levels keep you upbeat. So eat the right food and get plenty of sunshine. Over and above these, saturated fats play an important role in testosterone production. Red meat has lots of it but if you are a vegetarian add coconut oil and cashew nuts to your diet, as a replacement. If you eat eggs, the yolk has lots of saturated fat. Alcohol is also considered a potent Aphrodisiac.

108 Testosterone Boosters








I have struggling with chronic fatigue all my life. The issue with this condition is that, over time it affects everything in your body especially the hormone levels. It creates anorexic conditions and balancing your diet becomes an issue. This further complicates matters. My testosterone level had been falling consistently and went below a level of 100 ng/dL. I started researching ways to boost testosterone naturally because low – T therapy has many adverse side effects. Whenever I Googled for “food for higher testosterone”, the result were "8 Testosterone Boosting Foods ", "6 Seasonal Foods to Boost Your Sex Life" and "9 Ways to Naturally Increase Testosterone Levels". It was the same stuff I found in every list. I was looking for a more easy to find vegetarian foods which none of the list had. I kept searching and slowly found more stuff to add to my list and use to boost my testosterone levels. I had to do it the hard way. I first worked out what was needed to boost testosterone levels and then searched for foods that had the necessary ingredients. Over a couple of years I have compiled a list of 108 foods that boost testosterone. I have used most stuff from the list in my diet plan. My testosterone level tripled over six months from under 100 ng/dL to 353 ng/dL as on October 13, 2013 when I last checked. I am a vegetarian and do not get the high saturated fat and cholesterol present in meat, so I use lots of coconut oil. This is the list of 108 foods for optimizing testosterone levels that I am sharing with you here.

Some of these foods contain high levels of cholesterol and saturated fat which are key elements in Testosterone production and a few reduce or delay the production of estrogen. Some of these foods are natural aphrodisiacs. All are rich in one or more of the following elements; Potassium, Zinc, Vitamin D, Folic Acid, Vitamin E, Omega-3s, Bromelain (enzyme), indole-3-carbinol, Magnesium, Calcium, Manganese, Tryptophan, Arginine, Catechins, Vitamin C, Vitamin A, Androstenone , Androstenol, Vitamin K, Vitamin Bs, Saponins, natural Methylators, Apigening , Capsaicin , Citrulline, Reservatrol, Selenium and Bromelain (enzyme).
